In this scenario Gruffudd Ap Llywelyn manages to stay both alive and in power over a unified Wales as King at the time of the Norman Conquest. Can you imagine him managing to annex all lands west of the river of Severn plus Chestershire and managing to defend those lands against William? I can. In this scenario, he passes the throne to any eldest so he has and Wales at last develops into a unified Kingdom having regained the fertile lands between Offa's Dyke and the Seven. I imagine a capital eventually being established in the form of Hereford, Shrewsbury or Chester. Offcourse in the end, Wales would have to be conquered though perhaps not before the end of the middle Ages?
